The third edition of the 2013 "Tuning Up For Food" concert series is Saturday and Sunday at the Sandusky County Fairgrounds, 901 Rawson Ave.

Area musicians and entertainers will take the stage from 1 to 4 p.m. both days to benefit the Sandusky County Food Pantry. The family-friendly shows are in conjunction with the Sandusky County Flea Market. The concerts and flea markets are free, and there is free parking on the fairgrounds.

Saturday's entertainment will feature area singers Samantha Kuns, Billy Lee and other performers.

An "All Star Jamboree" will take place on the stage Sunday, featuring many of the top country music performers from northwest Ohio.

The Sandusky County Restorers of Antique Power, known as SCRAP, will have antique tractors on display all day Sunday on the fairgrounds.

In lieu of an admission charge, organizers request a donation of non-perishable food items for the food pantry. Monetary donations also will be accepted. Donors' names will be entered into drawings for gift certificates and prizes donated by Subway of Fremont, The 818 Club, Papa Murphy's Pizza, Paramount Cinema and other local vendors. A pair of one-day passes to the 2013 Sandusky County Fair, as well as tickets to some of the grandstand events, courtesy of the Sandusky County Agricultural Society, also will be awarded at each concert.

People are invited to bring lawn chairs or other comfortable seating to the concerts. Food and refreshments from the Sandusky County Agricultural Society also will be available, and people are encouraged to come early and visit the flea market starting at 10 a.m. both days.

The weekend concerts and food drives are sponsored by Crown Battery Inc.
